Rebuked.

A few years ago, as stranger rose
in one of our city pulpits to begin the
sermon, several of the congregation
began to leave the church. He was a
lame man, and the pulpit was located
near the doors. Wait a moment, my
friends" said the preacher, " till l get
my hat, and I'll go with you" Down
he came, limping, hat in hand, and left
the church. This abrupt closing of
the services taught the people that
there was at least one minister who
would not be treated with contempt.
On certain occasion the eloquent DR..
E. II. Chaplin, being sick, was COM
PEELED to ask friend to preach for him.
AS the stranger rose to announce the
opening hymn score of persons rose
to go out. This clergyman also was
equal to such an emergency. All, )"
he said, "who came here to worship
DR.. Chaplin will please leave now; but
those who came to worship God will
sing the forty-third hymn" That
stopped the eXodus.-Selected.

A Serious Question.

Few utterances are more impressive
than those which come from lands re-
Gently evangelical concerning the slow
ness of the Christian Church in pro-
claiming the Word of Life. Mr.. Lewis,
missionary of the London Society at
Bellary, was not long ago asked by a
young Brahmin: EDO the Christian
people of England really believe that it
would be good thing for the people of
India to become Christians?" "Why,
yes; to be sure they do" was the reply.
What | mean is" continued the Brah-
min, {" do they, in their hearts, believe
that the Hindus would be better and
happier if they were converted to
Christianity" Certainly they do"
said Mr.. Lewis. " Why, then, do they
act in such a strange way? Why do
they send so few to preach their re-
ligion? When there are vacancies in
the civil service there are numerous
applicants at once; when there is a
military expedition, hundred officers
volunteer for it; in commercial enter
prises, also, you are full of activity
and always have strong staff. But it
is different with your religion. see
one missionary with his wife here, and
one hundred fifty miles away is another,
and hundred miles in another direction
is third. How can the Christians of
England expect to convert the people
of India from their hoary faith with so
little effort on their part?" Is there
any good answer to be made to these

Two Ways of Looking at Things.

We all graduate at the university of
hard knocks. Misfortune, fatigue, eX-
posure and disaster are the professors.
Kicks, cuffs and blows are the curricu-
lum. The day we leave the world is
our graduation. Some sit down and
cry Some turn their face to the wall
and pout. Others stand up and con-
quer. Happy is the bee that even
under leaden skies looks for poisoning
buckwheat; wise the fowl that instead
of standing in the snow, with the foot
drawn up under its wing, ceases not all
day to pick. There are different ways
of looking at things. Rain-drop the

Written for the Waterman
Gods Plan, not Ours.

We should never complain of our
birth, however lowly it may be, nor of
our advantages, however meager, nor
of our disadvantages. We should never
harbor the idea that we could be some
thing great if we were only surrounded
by different circumstances and our
Master had assigned us a lot in a more
favorable sphere. God, in his infinite
wisdom, understands his own designs
and knows what we want a great deal
better than we can tell or think. The
very things we most deprecate as fatal
limitations or distractions impeding our
advancement are doubtless Gods OPP
portunities. 1t is no certain proof be-
cause a patient dislikes his medicines
that they are poison. No! A truce to
all impatience Let us choke that
foolish, impetuous envy which is con-
tinually gnawing at the vitals of our
hearts because we are not cast in the
same lot with others. May we haste to
Drlng down our souls, or rather bring
them up, where we may compre-
bend Gods plan, understand his COM
mandments and do his will, in whatever
sphere we are; and while under our
own dark and stormy clouds of OBJ
security and battling against our pecu-
liar temptations we shall ascertain that
our condition has never been opposed
to our good, but really consistent with
it, because the trial of these Affections
work out for us a far more exceeding
and eternal weight of glory.

DO It..

Say to the powers of thy soul and
members of thy body, as the mother of
Jesus said to the servants of the house
of Cana of Galilee, " Whatsoever he
saith unto you, do it," All the powers
of thy soul should wait on him: thy I'M
Outstanding to get light and direction
from him; thy will to obey his will 4;
thy affections, like so many messen-
gers, to run whittier and when he COM
mands them; thy outward senses that
are the ports by which infection comes
into the soul, and by which affection
goes out to temptation will then be
subjected to Christ's power and COM
mand. When king is received into a
city, the keys of the gate are delivered
unto him. So heart that hath re-
ceived Christ prays earnestly to him
that he would set a strict watch over its
senses, that no thought come in or 90
out without his special warrant.-C0l-
rule.

Why Pickett's Charge was Made.

But the visiting confederates have
made it clear that, whatever their gem
erals may have thought, the body of
their soldiery believed that the artillery
fire which had been poured for two
hours upon the Union line had wrought
havoc so dreadful that a charge would
meet with no spirited resistance. The
Union cannon were silent. Many dead
men and horses could be seen, as well
as dismounted gun-carriages. Pickett's
division formed for the charge, accord
ingly, full of hope and eagerness. After
they had advanced out of the woods
and were crossing the plain, when the
whole long crest OF Cemetery Ridge be-
came fringed with fire and smoke and
Numbered storm of shot and shell
the division kept on in the courage of
despair and steadily closed up the gaps,
as wide as houses, that were torn out
of their ranks. 1t has been brought out
more clearly than ever that the charge :"
of Pickett was no headlong rush upon
the Union position. The distance to
be traversed, the burning sun, the in
clination of the ground, the interven-
ing fences would make this impossible.
That line Of men in gray marched
steadily, slowly, and only broke into a
double-quick when a few yards from
the stone fence that they desired to
pass. The estimates of the time that
elapsed between their start from the
woods and their arrival at the Union
line have varied. The veterans here
all agreed that it was over twenty min
utes and less than half an our.-GettyS-
burg Cor. Philadelphia Press.

Perseverance in Well-DOing.

Years ago German boy read of the
siege of Troy, and made up his mind to
find the ruins of that ancient CITY.
Troy had persisted three thousand years
ago-if, indeed, it ever existed at all.
But" said the little German. " | will
find it though" Though a poor lad
shaving at work until bedtime, he pro-
cured books and taught himself six or
seven languages. He pushed on and
prospered until, as an indigo merchant,
he made a fortune. Every step of this
study and money-making was taken
with the aim of fulfilling the VOW of
his boyhood. In due time he started
eastward with company of laborers,
and for long, long years pursued his
search. AT last he found Troy. His
discovery was sensation through all
Europe. a short time ago the treasures
of gold, silver and bronze dug out of
the palace of the trojan king were dis
tributed at South Kensington. For
three thousand years the burnt ruins of
that city had lain covered with sand.
and by many il was regarded only as
the tabled creation of poetry; but Mr..
Schlieman, at his own unstinted eX-
pense and by his own amazing enter
prise, proved its discovery to the world.
Think of it. A poor lad, learning Ian
guages, making money, spending seven
years or more in PARKWAY deserts, sus-
tanned through lifetime by one fixed
resolution. He vowed in boyhood that
he would find Troy, and he did find it.
The German lad said, A" Put down my
name," and when life was far spent
he succeeded in hacking his way into
the temple of fame. Now, if we can
find truth and God, if we can find
glory, honor, Immortality and eternal
life" is it not worth while, for the sake
of these imperishable possessions, to
summon up our uttermost resolution
and to pursue our aim with diligence
